Now that you describe his inventory system... is sounds very sensible to me. It's you that needs to understand it... He's presumably got bins (cans) that are all numbered for either part number or location and a control system to keep track of that. The problem is that you know how to ID stuff by sight rather than by number... The whole idea of inventory is that you count everything so you can keep a handle on losses... either perishables or theft. Also, while it may seem easy to eliminate a number from the system because it hasn't sold for a long time, it's still there because he might need to order one tomorrow... then he has to re-enter the item number, then the stock, then the sale... this way the item is there. Funny that inv is taking you so long too. Usually around here they'll close for a day and just do it. Coop store here will put 5-7 people on it and go through 20K square feet in a day and mabey finish odds and ends in spare time over the next couple days. That's done 6 times per year... Yes, they all hate doing inventory... but it has to be done so we know how many turns has been done and particularly to keep track of losses. There's no doubt a method to what this guy does, even if he does use cheap coffee cans.

I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
